This is typically what a baptismal meeting here looks like (from the back) this meeting was a baptism of my zone leaders Elder Yorgason and Elder Spackman (americans for the win)

The kid who was baptized, Bruno, actually asked if he could be the one to leave the spiritual thought after words, what an example he is of faith and testimony
